CyJen - Odds and Ends

The City of Angeles in Pampanga is currently celebrating a event, "Twin Fiesta 2008 - A Month Long Celebration", organized by Angeles City Tourism Office (ACTO) sanctioned by the City Government of Angeles.

The Twin Fiesta 2008 is a primary event, the biggest one celebrated in North Luzon this time of the year because the La Naval Fiesta and the Fiestang Apu are by long-standing tradition both celebrated in the month of October by Angeleños.  People from all over Pampanga, Tarlac, Olongapo, Bulacan and other nearby provinces are known to visit their friends and loved ones, being delighted with culinary treats and tours of city spots.

It’s been quite some time that I’ve visited Starbucks Coffee, since the closest shop they have here in Pampanga is at SM City Pampanga located in San Fernando (I’m in Angeles City by the way), and its about 15-20 minutes drive via NLEX. At last, I won’t have to take that long drive to SM City Pampanga just to go to Starbucks Coffee. Last week Starbucks Coffee opened their shop in SM City Clark after waiting for more or less 2 months. Since we were able to see the announcement "Soon to Open" outside of the stalls where the shop is located.
The shop in SM City Clark spans three stalls and is located beside the right entrance at the back of SM. On the outside of the shop they have the usual coffee tables were customers usually hang out while having their favorite Starbucks products. The inside of the shop is a little bit cramped near the counter because of a "post", I think it’s one of the support for the building, but for the general area its fine. What I really liked about Starbucks Coffee shops is the ambience. Relaxing.
So, last Monday, Jen and I gave the shop a visit and had our usual orders of Frappuccino, Mocha for me and Caramel for Jen. We decided to sit outside the shop, I prefer hanging out outside. We stayed for a good 15-20 minutes, me toying with our Rubiks Cube, and Jen playing HotShots Golf on her PSP.

Caramel and Mocha Frappuccino for Cy and Jen
I kinda missed just hanging out at Starbucks, I’m glad that they opened a shop here in Angeles City, so Jen and I now have a new place to hang out if we visit SM City Clark.
P.S.
This is actually my first Blog Post, its kind of a weird feeling. Hehehehe! Well, hopefully this will be a jumpstart for me to write more.
